Founded in 1968, the International Baccalaureate (IB) is a not-for profit foundation, which offers four high quality and challenging education programmes. The Foundation Office in Geneva is the home of the Director General, the Deputy Director General, our Legal & Compliance department and other staff members.

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is a global leader in international education developing inquiring, knowledgeable, confident, and caring young people. The IB programmes empower school-aged students to take ownership in their own learning and help them develop future-ready skills to make a difference and thrive in a world that changes fast.

The IB works in four areas: Development of curriculum, Assessment of students, Training and professional development of teacher, & Authorization and evaluation of schools.

IB students demonstrate a strong commitment to learning, both in terms of the mastery of subject content and in the development of the skills and discipline necessary for success in a competitive world.
